Cover potatoes by 2 inches with water in a large saucepan. Add salt and bring potatoes to a boil over high heat. Cook until potatoes are fork tender, about 12 minutes, and drain.
When potatoes are just cool enough to handle, cut each one in half lengthwise, to most resemble the shape of an egg. Use a small measuring spoon or melon baller to scoop out the center of each potato, leaving about a 1/8-inch border. Add potato flesh to a bowl.
Mash potato flesh with a fork and stir in mayonnaise, mustard, relish, green onions, and pepper. Season with salt to taste. Spoon or pipe mixture into each potato “shell” and sprinkle with paprika. Sprinkle with chives if desired and serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
